Application
Capture antibody in ELISA. Recommended coating concentration 5 μg/mL. See suggested protocol.
Optimal working dilutions must be determined by the end user.
Suggested ELISA Protocol For Ovine IL-6
1. Coat high capacity microtitre wells (e.g. Nunc maxisorp) with monoclonal anti-IL-6 antibody (Chemicon Catalog Number MAB1004) at a concentration of 5 μg/mL in 0.1 M carbonate buffer pH 9.6 overnight at 4ºC.
2. Wash wells 3 x with PBS + 0.05% Tween 20 (PBST).
3. Add samples to wells. Incubate at room temperature in a humidified box for 1 hour. Wash 3 x with PBST.
4. Dilute rabbit anti-IL-6 (Chemicon Catalog Number AB1839) 1:500 in PBST and add 100 μL to wells. Incubate at room temperature for 30 minutes. Wash 3 x with PBST.
5. Dilute anti-rabbit IgG-HRP to appropriate level in PBST and add 100 μL to wells. Incubate 30 minutes at room temperature. Wash 3 x with PBST.
6. Add 100 μL of TMB chromagen to each well. Incubate for 5-10 minutes and stop reaction with 50 μL of 2M sulfuric acid.
Notes:
The anti-rabbit IgG HRP must be adsorbed against mouse immunoglobulin, and should be checked for non-reactivity with coated plates.
Non-specific binding may be reduced by addition of protein such as skim milk powder to the diluents.
Assay sensitivity may be altered by adjusting incubation times and reagent concentrations.
Optimal working dilutions must be determined by the end user.

A fetal inflammatory response (FIR) in sheep can be induced by intraamniotic or selective exposure of the fetal lung or gut to lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The oral, nasal, and pharyngeal cavities (ONP) contain lymphoid tissue and epithelium that are in contact

Chorioamnionitis, an inflammatory reaction of the fetal membranes to microbes, is an important cause of preterm birth and associated with inflammation-driven lung injury. However, inflammation in utero overcomes immaturity of the premature lung by inducing surfactant lipids and lung gas
Selective exposure of the fetal lung and skin/amnion (but not gastro-intestinal tract) to LPS elicits acute systemic inflammation in fetal sheep.
